An irregularly shaped earthwork pit, circa 26 by 62 metres in size, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. It is located in the northern part of a field and part of the area is depicted as scrub on the late-19th century map. It is interpreted as the remains of an extractive pit that was abandoned by the late-19th century.
